Dark Fuchsite Mica Schist Display Specimen — approx. 363 g

A dramatic natural dark fuchsite-bearing mica schist display specimen, with charcoal to green-black micaceous layers, bright silvery reflective cleavage surfaces, pale mineral patches and warm brown-gold staining. Its strongly foliated texture gives the piece a striking, sculptural presence from every angle.

This specimen is offered as dark fuchsite mica schist based on its appearance and micaceous texture. Fuchsite is the chromium-rich green variety of muscovite; photographs alone cannot verify chromium content, and the dark mica may include other mica species. Exact mineral chemistry and locality have not been laboratory verified.
